Random recruit of the day: 5-star RB Sontonye Jamabo

Sontonye Jamabo stands 6' 2", brings 203lbs. to the field and runs like a freight train trying to make up time for being late.

At his appearance at The Opening Jamabo noted that Oregon is among his favorites along with UCLA, Texas A & M, Notre Dame, ASU, Baylor, Oklahoma. It also sounds like the Texas native isn't likely to make a decision before the end of the football season and that he'll take his visits.

He's the 2nd ranked running back and 42nd overall by Scout.com I think Oregon's chances of landing him are decent, but not great. Oregon will still have Byron Marshall, Thomas Tyner, Royce Freeman, Taj Griffin and Tony James on the roster if Jamabo were to arrive in Eugene in 12 months.Of course, Griffin can't sign until February and those 5 backs could quickly become 3 in one year.

By the end of Jamabos' freshman year Marshal and Tyner could be gone as well. Leaving Oregon with only 2-3 backs even with him on the roster. Guys at his level can compete and get on the field in all kinds of ways. All the other schools he's looking at are also as loaded or nearly as loaded as well. I think Oregon will take one more back if it's someone of Jamabo's caliber, and they'll certainly recruit all fall for another one and keep recruiting Griffin to ensure he shows up. Although, with Griffin's brother Ty now a Duck, that's about as sure a thing as you can imagine right now.
